• Song:

    Sick Of It All

  • Artist:

    Finger Eleven

  • Album:

    Greyest Of Blue Skies

Band: Finger Eleven
Song: Sick of It All
Album: Greyest Of Blue Skies

Tuning: Half step down then drop-d (Db  Ab  Db  Gb  Bb Eb)

Notes: Well this is the best *** song on the “greyest of blue skies” album, I haven’t seen that many tabs for it on the net, so like most ppl who have no patience for things I decided to tab it myself. After spending numerous hours listening to the studio and live versions of the song and watching James Black and Rick Jackett (tho watching from a mosh pit is hard to do with the bumping and the grinding and the feeling…….never mind) I’m satisfied with what I got. This tab combines studio and live guitar parts.
